VERSE 1
********
 D                C
I look down the street but there`s no one there
    G             D
In the cold, in the dark, in the night air
 D            C
I call out for life but my heart feels despair
      G           D
There`s no sign of a light in the cold dismal night

-------------------------
VERSE 2
********
  D             C
The lights have all gone, the clothes are all torn
  G            D
The people are gone but the victory`s won
 D             C
I call out for life but it`s after the day
    G            D
Now the people are gone just the city alone

D C D X2

-------------------------
CHORUS
*******
D             C
Eyes look from the second floor
          G
Down to the street below
           D   C
Calm now the wind is slow
D            C
See posters once on the wall
C           G
Now washed away in the rain
       D
Peeling from buildings tall

G

-------------------------
VERSE 3
********
   D              C
I`ll follow you friends to where life never ends
     G           D
Make our mistakes again as our life lines descend
D             C
Time is like dust and the dust is like snow
   G            D
As it covers the ruins of the life that you know


-------------------------
CHORUS
*******
D               C
Trees once green now turned to stone
            G
Objects that look like ghosts
        D   C
All of them overgrown
D             C
Mist all sight and mind is blurred
           G
Lie on your back and cry
          D
Words uttered never heard

G

VERSE 4
********
 D                C
I look down the street but there`s no one there
    G             D
In the cold, in the dark, in the night air
 D            C
I call out for life but my heart feels despair
      G           D
There`s no sign of a light in the cold dismal night


-------------------------
VERSE 5
********
  D             C
The lights have all gone, the clothes are all torn
  G            D
The people are gone but the victory`s won
 D             C
I call out for life but it`s after the day
    G            D
Now the people are gone just the city alone
